Self-Publishing Your Book
A ​Virtual Seminar

So you have a book you're looking to self-publish? Some of the most famous authors in history self-published their books and today there are more options to do so than ever before. But the process is different than submitting the book to a publisher. How do you find the right printer? What do you need done? What about cover-art and formatting? How do you sell the book once it's printed? The publishers of Local Gems Press go over the self-publishing process.

How Does It Work?

Purchase your ticket. You will be emailed a link to a private web broadcast set for the time scheduled. Before the seminar you will be emailed a slide presentation. You can read it in advance, and use it to follow along on the live broadcast. During the broadcast there will be time allotted for questions and answers. Everyone signed up will be given the teleseminar number to call, and questions will be answered in order of call-in. 

What If I Can't Make The Time?

Got something the time of the live broadcast? The benefits of being virtual is flexibility. Everyone who signs up will be given a downloadable audio file of the live seminar once the seminar is complete. Have a question you still want answered even if you can't call in? Email it to us before the broadcast and we will answer it live.
